MTL - Raising Evil Spirits-Chapter 34 : Overcast
When I came to the farmer’s market, it happened to be on the street and crowded with people. I finally found a parking space and parked my car before entering the market.
I think Qianjin City rarely goes to places like markets. I don’t know that there is a large shopping mall. Yu Xiaoxue took me like Grandma Liu into the Grand View Garden.
She seems to enjoy pulling my nose like this now, because she is usually the object of my bullying.
Yu Xiaoxue had no impression of clothes and other things, and took me to the second floor of the mall. The clothes I asked were really cheap, about 30 or 40 yuan.
I was afraid that when she bought it back, I would be laughed at by Han Shanshan and Zhao Qian, so I took her away.
On the first floor of the mall, I bought some cooked vegetables, and took Yu Xiaoxue to a sports brand specialty store, and bought two sets of sportswear, one pink and one blue.
Yu Xiaoxue looked at more than 500 bills, her eyes were stunned, and her words were incomplete, but she was very satisfied with the new clothes, because the sportswear was practical and suitable for her running and jumping.
After fulfilling her wish, she took me to the antique street of the market. There are actually not many shops here, but when it comes to the market day, there will be people from the village who come to the market to sell some unusual things.
Someone used to sell bronze drums, but I heard that they bought them for more than 10,000 yuan, and they sold them to auctions, earning hundreds of thousands.
Of course, even if this kind of thing does appear, I can't afford it. I can only pay a few hundred dollars at most. For now, Yu Xiaoxue still has a thousand dollars, which is richer than me.
And I have to start worrying about her tuition for school. After all, her father is no longer there, and I count him as half of his brother. In addition to solving the problem of livelihood, I am also responsible for her education.
"Are you a senior in high school?" I asked Yu Xiaoxue.
"Brother Tian, I have finished my sophomore year, or else I won’t go to school. We don’t have any money. Xiaoyitun can’t go back. I’ll work in the county. I will serve dishes and wash dishes. Okay." Yu Xiaoxue was a little embarrassed. She had asked me about my part-time job, but I didn't agree.
"No, the walls in your house are all certificates of merit. Your grades are good. It is too wasteful not to read." I immediately rejected her idea. Her grades must be very good, but the family is too poor and can't afford her. Now, since she is following me now, I have to support her in school no matter how hard I am.
"I didn't get good grades, but actually ranked in the fortieth. The awards were issued by the teacher for the sake of the family's beauty, or else just don't read it." Yu Xiaoxue shook her head.
It’s impossible to expect a sensible child to finish studying. Yu Xiaoxue’s mentality is normal, but I said: “What’s the difference between more than forty and number one, read it? , Brother is rich, he went out in the past few years and made tens of thousands, which is enough for you to go to college.
I pretended to smile, Yu Xiaoxue finished listening and stared at me, afraid that I would lie to her: "Brother Tian, you lie to me...you have no money at all."
"I have some. Why don't you call your aunt?" I said, taking out my mobile phone and calling her. When I found my mother's number, I had to dial it. I knew she didn't dare to listen.
"Then you really? Don't lie to Xue?" Yu Xiaoxue looked at me wronged.
"Don’t lie, what are you doing? If it’s not enough for your aunt, you will have to wait until you finish college. At that time, you had to spend thousands of dollars a month. Now you can wash dishes and serve dishes in the county seat. , When should I get ahead?" I persuaded her.
"My god...actually I lied to you. Those awards are all true. I took the second grade exam last semester. I tell you, I could get the first place. But that day, Beckham said that I only need not Answer the last question and ask her to give me fifty for the first place. I thought about giving my dad two catties of rice wine and a dish of roast duck, and then I didn’t write that question..."
Yu Xiaoxue bitterly took out a piece of fifty yuan rolled into twists from the corner of her clothes and gave it to me: "As a result, Xiaobei gave me money, and I didn't dare to use it after thinking about it for a long time..."
"Then you dare next time?" I immediately looked at her with a grimace, and confiscated the fifty yuan, but I couldn't help feeling sour: Oh, Uncle Yu Gen, what are you going back to Xiaoyitun this time? If I didn't bring it, I owed you two catties of rice wine and a dish of roast duck for Xue. I will be able to go back later and I will definitely bring it to you.
"Don't dare anymore." Yu Xiaoxue's eyes are red, although she sometimes does inconspicuous things, such as digging other people's sweet potatoes, but that is also naive and hungry when she was a child.
"That's good, listen to your brother. After reading the plan, we can go to Tsinghua University and Peking University. There is no shortage of that little money." I said with a grunt.
"Okay! Brother Tian is the best to me!" Yu Xiaoxue was happy, and seeing the little couple next to him almost sticking to each other, she also ran over to hold my hand.
I didn't shake it off for a few times, so I ignored her. Anyway, no one in the county knew me or her and didn't care about this image.
But when I thought about that, a familiar figure suddenly appeared at the far end of my sight!
"An egg!" I almost shouted out! Freed from Yu Xiaoxue's hand, Fei also chased after him!
Yu Xiaoxue was stunned, and when she saw me chasing, she also chased after me.
As a result, the crowd was too dense. I was afraid of what happened to Yu Xiaoxue, so I stopped and watched Zhang Yidan disappear to the edge of the market.
"Brother Egg? How come?" Yu Xiaoxue asked me in surprise, she didn't seem to see it.
"It may be wrong, impossible, impossible." I explained to myself, and then watched Yu Xiaoxue smile bitterly, Zhang Yidan was obviously dead, killed his own ghost infant, and now appeared in broad daylight. How can this be? Li Gui borrowed it to make sense in the gloomy woods, in this sea of people? It is impossible.
It is normal for the county seat of 800,000 people to look similar. I sighed. The memories I might have brought back to Yu Xiaoxue reminded me of my friends here.
"Brother, are you going to the Antique Street, right there, here, have you seen it?" Yu Xiaoxue pointed to the intersection where the person who looked like Zhang Yidan just came out and said.
"Well, I saw it, let's go over." I said, and my already calm heart twisted again. "Zhang Yidan" went to Antique Street?
I shook my head and turned into Antique Street with Yu Xiaoxue. That side street is actually an alley, even selling chickens, ducks and geese.
I randomly found a shop with a nice-looking owner, and I asked him if he had old yellow paper, good cinnabar and pens.
This kind of old county will never lack such things, and the boss quickly came up with several.
I bought these things not because Zhao Qian didn't have them, but because I couldn't use the things that others had used, which would affect the accuracy of casting.
I chose the oldest and the most expensive aged cinnabar. This cinnabar cost tens of dollars per gram. I bought some and it cost more than 400. The old yellow paper won’t be a dozen because of the storage period. It's cheap, with a special brush, that's six hundred dollars.
After thinking about it, this is true or not. If you don't have money, you can't play with these things. Playing this is killing your life. Can things that are attached to your life not expensive?
So first, you have to have money, and secondly, you can see whether your Dao Fa is good or not. Then, consider the Dao Fa, your partner, and the dojo where you practice. Together, after the test of time, can you become a master of Dao Fa.
"Boss, was there a young man in his twenties who was wearing factory clothes just now, passing by or shopping here?" On a whim, I asked the boss about what Zhang Yidan was wearing.
"Oh, you said him, hey, I’m surprised, I said, why are you young people playing with these things recently? That person just came to me just like you and asked me to buy cinnabar and pen, and the pen was I bought it. I took out the cinnabar and he said it was not appropriate. I ran to the stall opposite and bought it. Ha ha, all the things on the opposite side are prepared by the boss himself. Can it be used?” The boss didn’t hide it, and pointed to the opposite shop. Setting up a street stall means not good.
I immediately ran to the old woman at the street stall and asked her if she had done business with the younger brother, but the old woman didn’t say a word. She looked at the direction where Zhang Yidan disappeared, pointed at the cinnabar, and stretched out a finger. .
I think about it, I really can’t tell her if I don’t buy her things, so I took out fifty yuan: "Come five grams."
The old woman laughed and stretched out a finger, but her smile was very irritating. She showed a severely missing dental plate, but it was all normal, but her tongue was mostly broken! It was a dumb, scared me and Yu Xiaoxue two steps back!
The tongue must have been cut off!
"Boy, it's one hundred and one gram!" The boss on the other side was shocked when he saw me, and kindly reminded me.
I don't think I can ask anything. The cinnabar has formed a brownish purple color. I don't know how to use it, so I dragged Yu Xiaoxue away.
With the only two or three hundred left, I felt that I still lacked a soul urn to buy, so I was going to some antique shops.
The soul urn is an urn, which is specially loaded with the ashes and bones of dead people. However, the urn is now a waste product, even if it is made of gold and white jade. I have to find some pottery urns instead. I found a lot of antique shops, and the boss told me that they are all handicrafts. There are hundreds of cheap fakes from the Han Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty.
I felt cold and felt that Xijun’s home was probably gone. I carefully recalled the process of making a soul urn with grandma. Every time before making a soul urn, my grandma would go out and find all kinds of materials after returning. .
These materials are not very special, just ordinary soil, but it seems that they never intended to let me play, saying that it is not good for me.
And she made them all by herself, but now I don’t have enough firing conditions.
Grandma is of course a master. She can find clay to make a soul urn, and then burn it into a soul urn after carving the seal script. This kind of ghost urn is too powerful, can I?
"It's Yin Earth!" Just when I was hesitating, such a word popped out of my mind, which made me give up completely and stay in Antique Street because I decided to make pottery by myself.
